AliveBoy Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 and there seems to be a LOT of those bumpers around the forum, so they must fit pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-350 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I can tell you now that any after market body parts will never be a perfect fit. I have had numerous parts from Aerokit and EPRacing for example and both claim to be perfect fitment - Most of the time is wasn't even close and took hours of modifying to fit.

leodspider Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 ive got that bumper plus the diffuser as well, ive posted in the styling part of the forum go have a look, its more agressive and its a love hate thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 they do fitting there. even if you dont want them to paint it for you (you may have a prefered painter) you can get them to fit it. as its there kit you should have no issues then. most GRP and CF body panels usually require a small amount of fettling. some body shops wont touch it. others will but charge you more. i can't comment on their quality as i've never bought their product, but its not unusual for GRP to require filling before painting, sometimes they have pin holes in tehm that require a quick skim and sand. to be fair i've never heard anythnig bad about the quality of their GRP so in that respect you should be fine.

AmyZed Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Hey, yes that's a copy Tara's makes of the original one I had fitted - mine fits great so I hope the copies do too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taras Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) If you ever get a chance to pop in to see our work, feel free to come have a chat. You'll find what we do is not of the normal body shop standard as we not only make fibreglass kits but we have a good understanding and experience in how to fit them too.
